'SCORE' Provides Mentors and Consultation to Business Owners

Gwen Campbell is highly educated and works as a researcher for the Navy, but none of that seemed to matter a few years ago when she tried to start a business from home.

"I've always been on the academic path, I have a Ph.D ... but I never knew anything about business. I had no idea. Every single thing was new to me," said Campbell, who runs GwynHug, an online company that sells fabric reference cards for sewers.

Campbell worked with the Central Florida chapter of SCORE to gain the business knowledge she lacked and get her business of the ground.
